Taking Notes

Who or what inspired you to take up music? I have tried to pinpoint the exact time and person that brought me to this insatiable addiction. However, I believe I was born this way, a sponge for music, a timeless attraction. I was exposed to '70s music as a kid, then went on a discovery binge as a curious teen, and eventually pursued the dream as an adult.

What was the most unusual or memorable gig you've ever played? The one that stands out for me would be in June 2010 when the Transfers played South Florida in my old stompin' grounds, to my friends, ex-bandmates and family. I had grown up in many ways, 16 years later, and was finally at peace with my past. It felt great!

What musician/celebrity/historical person would you most like to have dinner with? At this moment in time, I'd like to have dinner with Martin Luther King.

What was the last book you read? Eckhart Tolle's "A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose"

What CD/tape/music is in your car/home stereo/iPod right now? "Miike Snow" by Miike Snow

What is your favorite movie? The new "Star Trek" movie about to be released :)

What was the best concert you ever attended? Radiohead, June 2001, Woodlands, Texas. I've been to hundreds of concerts, but after years of anticipation, I finally had the opportunity to see a band I truly loved. I exploded into a million pieces of joy that day and I also found out that there were other fans that had the same connection as I did.

"If I didn't play music, I would ... "

Certainly be alone.

"I'd sell my soul for ..." Free, to someone who could do better with it for the peoples of this world.
